The COVID-19 pandemic also had negative effects on sea transport and affected passenger services and, above all, cruise ship traffic. 80% of international freight, including energy commodities, is transported by sea. In the first quarter of 2020, maritime activity registered a year-on-year fall of 6.8%. In the second quarter of the same year, the drop had raised to 27% (The Great Reset, 2021). Decline in passenger and freight transport was detected in 70% of the exclusive economic zones of 124 countries, and was particularly notable in the Western Mediterranean (March et al., 2021).
